Most people are pretty sceptical: equipment malfunction or miscalibration seems more likely. It was a very low-level event, not much more than a training session.

phelps 6,795 Posted July 20, 2021 #366 Share Posted July 20, 2021 also the same Alex Wilson said in an interview that he's pretty sure he didn't run any record, most likely he wasn't even below the 10-sec mark (moreover, he confirmed he had a flyer and that there was no regular starting blocks)... basically, there is no chance for that clocking to be registered as official (unless someone is really corrupted at WA and EAA)...

Orangehair43 172 Posted July 20, 2021 #370 Share Posted July 20, 2021 This Olympics is make or break for the future of Athletics. If the Super Spikes become unpopular then it will be a lot harder to prevent the post Bolt popularity drop from spiralling out of co)549. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
